Big Table
Two high-precision insert rings allow you to size
the table opening to fit the cutter.
The JET JWS-25X Shaper features a 25” X 25-
1/2” precision ground cast iron table that
provides a durable and spacious work area. The
table surface is at a comfortable 33” above the
floor. The table has a full-length, full-sized (3/4”
by 3/8”) miter slot that accepts the included full-
featured miter gauge. The slot can also be used to
guide your shop-made jigs. For odd shaped jobs
we include a steel starting pin that screws into
threaded holes in the cast iron table.
The opening for the cutter has inserts with inside
openings of 2 9/16” and 4 21/64”. Remove both
insert rings and the opening grows to a maximum 6 9/32”. That means the JET JWS-25X
Shaper can handle cutters with a 7” maximum diameter above the table and a 6”
maximum diameter below the table.
Micro Adjustable Fence
The JET JWS-25X
Shaper fence system is
loaded with high-end
features, beginning with
the heavy-duty iron cast
center section that adds a
tremendous amount of
stability. That casting
also forms a shroud that
directs the dust to a 4”-
diameter exit port at the rear that accommodates standard dust collector hose. We
recommend using a dust collector with a minimum 350CFM (cubic feet per minute)
rating for maximum efficiency.
The fence system (left) is tough, stable and has all of the adjustments you need
for safe, accurate shaper work. The right side fence face has this ultra-precise
front-to-back control (right) for jointing-type operations.
The fence has extruded aluminum faces, each with 14-1/2” by 4-3/4” of overall surface
area. The faces adjust independently from each other with a single finger operated knob
on the rear of the fence. The faces have T-slots in the front and top surfaces for attaching
jigs or the pair of featherboard hold-downs that are included. The outfeed fence face
(forward bit rotation) has a micro adjuster built in for making ultra precise jointing-type
cuts.
The JET JWS-25X is a full-featured, powerful machine that brings a full range of shaping
capabilities to your shop in a space and money-saving package.
